Junction Lands Three on All-Star Team
9SC00K
, Grove
teflon City
McKay Selected
For Third Time
By Bill Love
Hcgltter Quud Sporu Writer
Three of the eight places on
the 1949 District 6 All-Star team
went to members of Junction
City's championship squad. The
Junction trio joins two from
Eugene and one each from
Springfield, University High, and
Cottage Grove on the mythical
team.
A unanimous selection for the
second straight year is Jim Mc
Kay of Junction City. Ai if that
isn't enough, McKay is ulso one
of very few boys Us make the
All-Star team for three years
while playing high school ball.
Two other players were unan
imous Charley Garner of Junc
tion City and Bob Cook, scoring
champion from Cottage Grove.
Ted Johnson of Springfield and
Jack Parsons of Eugene, missed
unanimous selection by only a
single vote.
Further down the voting line,
but still gaining Ail-Star berths
by a comfortable margin, are
Leon Keefe of Junction City, and
Dean Parsons of Eugene.
Has Better Balance
The eighth position goes to
Bobby Newburn of University
High by the narrowest of mar
gins over six other candidates,
Bob Krasnaski of St. Mary's in
particular.
This year's All-star squad is
much better balanced than last
year's. Five of the eight are six
feet or better, and the squad
averages six feet, one inch. Last
year's team had only one six
footer, and less than a five-feet,
ten-inch average.
Three of the boys will see'
more prep action next year,
, Keefe and Cook being juniors
while Dean Parsons is only a
sophomore.
McKay's prowess is not dis
puted anywhere in the district.
He has been a ' key figure on
Junction teams for three years,
and does everything well. He
placed third in scoring (after
placing second last year), is
strong under the 'backboards,
does more than his share of the
"feeding," and his generalship
on the floor led the Tigers to the
district title.
Garner is, without a doubt,
the best guard in the league. The
Tiaer speed merchant special
izes in ball-hawking, has a lot
of drive, passes well, and is a
very dangerous shot, winding up
with well over 100 points for
the season.
Cook Made Points
Junction's height is wrapped
up in Keefe, He does his share of
.the backboard work, is a good
shot anywhere near the bucket,
Three Chosen
Unanimously
and is a strong team player.
Cook easily walked off with
scoring honors, totaling 181 for
the 12-game schedule. He is an
excellent shot, and hard worker, a
good backboard man. In one
game, Cook rang the bell for 35
points, a district record.
. Johnson was Springfield's out
standing ballplayer during the
past campaign, and finished sec
ond to Cook in the district scor
ing ... He can do almost any
thing with a basketball, and is
particularly strong on defense.
Jack Parsons was the work
horse for Hank Kuchera' Eu-

Wilkins is almost certain to play in the annual classic and will
prove the grid rookie is another Don Hutson. ...
I Jim will have to be in Chicago from July 24 through August 12

! gigantic coaching clinic. . . . That means that Jim will be gone for a
month and will have to get his start in line pretty fast so that some
one can operate his pre-season campaign for next football season. . .
The job as backfield coach, replacing Frank Zazula, was offered to
and turned down by Jim Bailey, Jim's backfield coach at Nevada.
. . . Bailey turned down the offer because his wholesale business In
Reno is too lucrative. . . . An announcement regarding the line posi
tion, replacing Dick Miller, is expected within the next few days. ! . .
Jim will also be co-coach with Paul Brown at a Cleveland clinic
May 6-7, which will be during a week's layoff in the spring practice
season. . . . The annual spring game will be May 28.

arrives on the Oregon campus, but will hit the airways, railways
and highways during the next few weeks to have a look at hoopsters
who might find their way to the Eugene school. . . . "Honest John"
isn't planning on "beating the bushes," because that isn't legal under
Pacific Coast Conference rules, but he will have a chance to see
quite a few promising maple courtmen in action.
Following the Oregon state tournament here, he will attend part
of the National AAU playoffs at Oklahoma City . . . Then he will
go to Hutchins, Kans., for the National Junior College tournament.
. . . Then the Vancouver (B. C.) prep tourney, in which we under

son of Springfield with 144, one
better than Jim McKay's 143 for
Junction City. Charley Garner of
Junction had 124 and Wayne Ma
son, Elmira, J22, to round out the
first five. Leading Eugene scorer
was Jack Parsons with 115. St.
Mary's Bob Krasnaski had 110 and
University's Dave Fletcher 109 to
pace their teams.
All told, twelve players had 100
or more points.
The most field goals went to
Cook with 75, twenty to spare.
McKay had his finger in most of
the other departments. He led in
freethrows made with 41 and in
fouls committed with 48, and tied
Jack Parsons of Eugene for the
most foul shots missed, 37.
Mike Lynch had the best free
throw average for the year, miss
ing only three out of 28 attempts.
Players scoring ten or more
points in district competition:
gained an All-Star berth , . .
With his six feet, six inches, and
powerful hands, Dean is a
demon under the boards. He is
also an excellent shot with either
hand.
Newburn is probably the least
heralded of the All-Star group.
Better known for his football
ability, Bobby, nevertheless, has
done a standout job for Uni
versity High the past two years.
Defensive play was an important
factor in his selection. Also,
Newburn is a great team player
and competitor, as well as being
a dangerous lpng-shot artist.
St. Mary's Krasnaski, who was
barely eked out for a first string
berth and who heads the sec
ond division, was virtually the
whole team for the Gaels. He led
their scoring and did most of the
ball-handling.
Coaches Vote
Joining Krasnaski on the sec
ond unit are Wayne Mason and
Tom Brown, Elmira; Don East
burn and Harlan Mickey, Cot
tage Grove; Ron Murray and
Clark Hollis of Eugene; and
Darwin Allison of Springfield.
Mickey was a first-string se
lection last year, when he won
the scoring title, but could do no
better than second string this
season.
Participating in the selection
were the following coaches: Earl
Vossen, Junction City; Bob Du
senberry, Cottage Grove; Hank
Kuchera, Eugene; Stan William
son, Springfield; Jim Mulvahill,
Elmira; Father J. J. Linehan, St.
Mary's; and Ray Hendrickson,

(U.Ri-r-Standout performances by

Olympic track team was featured
in the 31st annual Long Beach
crew-eutted Warrior who racked
up 22 points. Operating from the
center post, unrun proved to oe a
deadeyed dick with one-handed
and two-handed shots which he
converted from the side, under
the bucket and from far outside.
San Francisco's . mut and jeff
combination of Don Lofgran and
Rene Herrerias Ran Manhattan
dizzy in the tournament opener.
Six-foot-six Lofgran, a rubber
legged courtman with' a boarding
house reacb, dominated both back
boards for San Francisco and
hooped 17 points. Five-nine Her
rerias meanwhile surged all over
the court, breaking up Manhattan
plays and contributing 10 points
on one-handed shots from far out.
San Francisco displayed a fine
passing 'club that should cause
plenty' of trouble before the
tourney's end next Saturday night.
It did most of its shooting from
quarter court and the side court,
and when a basket was missed
Lofgran always was there to bang
in a rebond.
Neither team, however, was
connecting at the start and with
six minutes gone Frisco led, 4 to
2, on basket by Herrerias and Lof
gran. Manhattan tied the score at
five-all and seven-all, but a re
bound shot by Lofgran . got the
Dons rolling again.
Faced with a zone defense
thrown up by Manhattan, the
Coasters started banging from out
side, pulling out to a 29 to 14
bulge ' at the 15-minute mark.
Manhattan uncorked seven
straight points to cut the margin,
but a set shot by John Benning
ton and a one-hinder by Lofgran
gave Frisco a 38 to 21 bulge at
half time.
